I'll say this... This is MILES ahead of the videos you were producing before. The shot is clear, gets in all the right action and is directed wonderfully. Only criticism? I haven't read the railway series myself... but it felt like several stories had been put together to make up one big video. Great in theory, but remember that each 'saga' was made up of small bite-size stories, so putting them all together may make the film feel a bit long. For this though... I really think you pulled it off!
@SegaMario Yea, after all of the story writing and preparation in sets ect, I got struck with a heavy dose of CBA. It will be worse when I've added the Edward Thomas nameplates to No 4, but I should have his episode out before then. ;)
When I started watching this I thought hmm you sound like Caledonian812 but at the end I realized; oh of course he narrated it :) Beautiful models; I would even go as far to say they have much better detail than the original tv series models. Hell the Tv series models are pretty plain compared to these and only lighting really brought 'em out. In this these models win with or without professional lighting! :)
@MsWastedGirl1 They made REAL fire fighters look like INCOMPITENT FOOLS, WHICH THEY ARE NOT, THAT IS WHAT US TOY COMPANIES THAT GET THE STUFF THAST JAPANESE TOY COMPANIES MAKE ARE AND SAME WITH AMERICAN SHOW COMPANIES LIKE YTV AND SABAN.
Did you get the station sound for trainz because thats what the stations sound like aswell also this is an excellent first episode and another thing sir Haydn wasnt sir Handel why was that
brilliant that's the only word i can find to describe this the voices just seem right the smoke effects are incredibly well done and all in all it just seems for lack of a better word right the atmosphere is spot on although one small nitpick is that some of the goods trains seem over length for such a line if that makes sense?
@evafan002 Cheers, although I can assure you every aspect about this video is accurate to positioning and angle of the shed. The trains are no-where near over lengthed, nor will they ever be.
@ajhdbsteam sorry i should have made myself clearer i meant that to my eyes the goods trains consist of a few too many wagons as i have always imagined such trains as being made up of a maximum of 4 or 5
This is great! I love how realistic you made Gordon, he looks more like an A0 or A3, which ever you prefer and the OO9 models look fantastic too. And Matt Cooper's narration is spot on.
I was going to use some of the same tracks so I will try to use some others instead. Everything about this really gripped me, can't praise you enough. Proves you don't need moving faces to make a good movie, authough I'm going that route. Great work, I can't think of anything to improve upon really, maybie a few SFX were a tad loud, but that's literally it for me. Keep on the way you are, once again, what a come back! ;)
I'm so impressed with this I'm unsure what to say, surpassed my expectations. What a come back, Adam, seriously. Your choice of narrator in my opinion was brilliant and he did a grand job and helped to make it sound polished. The 1st scene with the stills was great and I loved the shots you used. The shed scenes with that gloomy light worked brilliantly and the way you made engines derail was totally convincing. Kevin's music worked perfectly too, authough I have to admit....
great work, it was worth the wait! i must ask you were you got the chassis for your engines? was thinking about making some 009 Skarloey models and can't seem to find the right chassis for them.
I must say you've done a superb job on this! The smoke was lovely, the models you build look fantastic and it's all shot and edited beautifully. I look forward for the next one, which I assume involves a refreshment lady ...
I am speechless. I can't even start picking my favorite bit of the episode. the models were surbrubly made (Gondon's in particular). 20/10, absolutly brilliant!
I have said it before and I shall say it again. Whenever I see I video from you I know I will enjoy it. This was fantastic I like how you mixed the two stories and also threw in your own twist as well! The sets where fantastic as well. Also Matt's narration was superb! Great job Adam!
@godred01 Because I suck and I still havent plopped it on, I found it easier to change the position of the driver in sacrfice of keeping the shots low if Im honest :P Since the next episode is about him, Im going to have to put it on for then so!
@DarthWill3 Cheers :) yea, its Diesel, its a bachmann 08 respray with the Hornby face added to it, although for the date this story is set in, Diesel shouldnt be there for another 5-6 years! All Of the engines colours will be right, as Talyllyn models ;]
@DarthWill3 When the story unfolds, the series spans over a period of time. Rusty and Duncan wont be in it for a while as they arrived in 1958, episode 1 is 1951. Duke wont appear at all as Im stopping In 1965, from then Ill be going back into time before preservation and the series will be purely about Skarloey and Rheneas, then I'm done! :P
@TheBlueE2 I actually based it on what actually happened on the Talyllyn Railway, using quotes from the Railway Series. Gordon has been in quite a few videos of mine since 2008 on my old channel but has never been giving a speaking role. There is quite a bit of music in there too but I thought it would be better not to make it overpowering. And lastly Peter Sam is green because I model the Talyllyn Railway Primarily. Thank you for watching, I'm pleased you enjoyed the video. :)
@MsWastedGirl1 Oh shush and go back to ya kitchen :P I credited you in the description, I didnt think you wanted to have a bump of train people posting on your youtube wall :]
@BusterTheSteamroller Actually it was Mr Peter Sam ;) the story isnt TV series based at all so.. And also the second part of the episode is a re-write from Tom Rolt's 'Railway Adventure.' Im glad you like it! Its good to hear from you.
I enjoyed watching the story come to life before my eyes. I certainly wasn't expecting the bit at the end with the Thin Controller. I'm glad to have been a part of this.
i loved gordon what did you do to make him look more R.W.S. acurate.
